  - name: Visibility
    description: >-
      Visibility into Amphenol spend is via ERP material ledgers and
      distributor invoices, not API telemetry.
  - name: Allocation
    description: >-
      Allocate to BOMs / product lines rather than to API consumers.
  - name: Optimization
    description: >-
      Optimization levers are part consolidation, alternates, and volume
      contracts, not request optimization.
  - name: Accountability
    description: >-
      Procurement and operations own this spend, not the developer / FinOps API
      practice.
